Diplomat long sleeved dress in pink

"Beautiful dress! The pink color is very vibrant. Classic cut, will never go out of style. Does run a little tight across the chest."

A hero piece I'll have forever!

"I've loved the style of the Diplomat dress from some time, I was excited to finally add it to my closet! It's fitted and flowy in all the right places which I adore! Well made and very quality, I know I'll have this dress for years to come. I shopped in store at the Madison Ave store in New York, and the service I received was top notch! The ladies in store were so helpful and kind. Thank you for a wonderful experience. I would say this runs true to size, I'm usually a Medium in dresses and that is the size I chose. It is a bit fitted through the bust but not to tight."

"This dress is so enlegant! Perfect shade of pink, perfect length, and perfect for the outdoor evening wedding. I am 5’2 & 125lb’s. I sized down and ordered an XS. It is difficult these days to find an age appropriate dress but this one checks all the boxes! Thank you:pink_heart:"

Perfect Dress

"I bought this dress for a Valentines Day event. It fit perfectly and was a great change from traditional red on Vday. I was elegant, fun and paired well with my FV bracelet stack and red FV shoes! I received so many compliments. So happy I bought this dress and look forward to wearing it again! I also have it in blue!"

Wedding Sister

"I am thrilled with the purchase of the Diplomat Mini Dress - Pink for my niece’s upcoming wedding weekend event in London, UK. The quality poly/dupioni fabric has structure but is also soft, the rosy pink is clear but not too bright for my summer color palette. A classic style with a great, easy fit for my needs. My husband highly approved, as did the mother of the bride! Reminiscent of my 1960s fashion choices, Twiggy-inspired! I feel like I can dress it up or down with different accessories for future use."

Size down!

"Just a heads up this dress runs large. I rec sizing down. Had to exchange for one size down and the exchange was instant and easy. Love the quality is so well made and very pretty!"

Rachel B. (5/5)

Not for me

"Fabric is stiff and not a very good quality. The dress is very short! I’m 5’8” and it looked ridiculous."

Q&A

I went to Dillards to try on for size after seeing Diplomat dress with 3/4 sleeves in pink online. They had what I wanted in Navy but not Pink. I tried on a XS and a Small. The XS fit perfectly and the Small was too tight. I noticed the XS had a full zipper and the S only a half zipper like the sleeveless Diplomat. Both had the same number on the tag? Before I order, I want to make sure I’m getting XS in pink with the FULL zipper. These dresses looked identical but obviously by the fit and difference in the zippers, they were not. Help please!
Hello, Thanks for reaching out. The longer zipper is the newest Version and can be stepped into.
